I have already explained to you why many youths are hooked on masturbation in the past now?

I also explained what it leads to.

Hmm when

However, i have some tips for people who are willing to quit masturbation and porn addiction.

Sorry for the late reply..

Masturbation is actually worse than fornication in that it is actually a practice of having sex with demons. It has worse spiritual consequences than fornication. Masturbation opens up a portal for spirit husbands and wives to invade people's lives, .

The reason many are advising him to break his fast is because we have placed self-servicing on a pedestal and made it greater than other sins. Self-servicing is a sin; like every other sin we all commit when we are fasting.

What of those who don't self-service but look lustfully at a woman? Should they break their fast too? Or those who got angry or envious or are critical of others during a fast? Should they break their fast too? What of those who make careless exergerations when gisting or chatting during a fast? Should they break their fast as well?

If sins break fast, then every fast will be unworthy of its goal. The goal of fasting is to help mortify carnality in the soul, so carnality in the soul should not make us break our fast, its the reason we are fasting for starters.

The goal of a bible fast is to mortify lust and carnality in the soul through the tool of self-affliction. Meaning you don't overcome lust and carnality to fast, you fast to overcome lust and carnality. To say someone must be holy to fast is an irony and a paradoxical statement; because you fast to mortify lust and carnality.

You begin your fast even with the lust and carnality still in your soul; and you continue the fast even with the lust and carnality, until the fasting afflicts your soul to the point of mortification of lust and carnality.

It takes a while for fasting to accomplish its goal of afflicting the soul unto submission to the Spirit of God. That's why I always say lenght matters in fasting.

I remember when I went on 30day water fast in May of 2013. It was around day 21 to 26 that sexual appetite was fully subdued. At that point of the fast, nothing could turn me on or even induce lustful thoughts any longer.

Now if I had broken my fast because of lustful thoughts on day 5 or day 14 or day 20; I wouldn't have afflicted my soul to the point of submission.

That's why Jesus said tarry UNTIL ye be endued with power, meaning its not when you begin tarrying that you're endued with power; there is an "UNTIL" attached to the result of fasting.

If you want to overcome all your flaws before you can fast, that in itself will be a sin, because the fast will be an exercise in self-rightoeusness.

So on point.... Fasting is meant to suppress carnality. So we shouldn't stop even when we fall into temptation during fasting. When someone drops Midway during fasting because of what they've done, then it means the devil won over them.

Besides, all sin should be looked equally as that is the beginning of understanding true righteousness.

I'm on a 1 month fasting and praying,6 to 12 is for 2weeks while 6 to 6 is for 2weeks also,I just finished the 6 to 12 yesterday,2day is my free day in order to continue the second half tomorrow

I've been having temptations since I started this prayer,satan has been sending women my way in order to spoil the fasting,I kept jumping and passing,though the urge has been there because I haven't had it for a long time,to an extend that I ejaculated before waking up from sleep every morning

Now the issue is that I masturbated today which is my free day in order to reduce the tension because I'm starting a tougher one tomorrow which is 6 to 6 which will last for another 2 weeks

The question now is,has this masturbation spoiled things for me?I still have faith that everything is still intact provided that I did it on my free day or am I wrong? I know masturbation is a sin but Its better than having it with any girl because if I did I wouldn't have been here asking questions,I would've canceled the remaining 2 weeks
Yes, you're going to hell. Any other question? undecided
